    Jings, I think I have a problem here.
    We had a question about growing roses in containers.
    I know I posted a response to that.
    Now I see the only response is from WOO - and the thread is closed.
    Am I missing something here ????

    I wondered that too.

    As I and others had taken the trouble to pass on our experiences and some photos, it seems a bit "officious" if the thread has been closed deliberately.

    What's the point of a message board, if as in this instance contributors aren't allowed to discuss such matters?
    To be fair, it's the first time it has happened that I've noticed on this board, so maybe there's a technical reason for it having been closed and the nine posts and photos removed.

    Perhaps an administrator would care to enlighten us?

    Hi Alice and Doghouse It is a New Sticky Thread In the Roses Forum that I added It is meant to help members and not at all to be Officious or detrimental in anyway:scratch::(

    I was going to add Information to it in the future posted by Members such as yourselves after asking your permission first of course :(


    If you look very carefully the Original Post/Thread started by Claralou,that you both answered remains in the Container Gardening Forum and hasn't been moved,:)

    Must confess I only returned to the original thread where I found all posts had been removed. I did not notice any information posted to say the thread had been moved. Maybe I missed it?

    No probs.
